Is Up Again, A GLAAD Report Says
There are more LGBTQ people on broadcast and streaming TV than ever before, but it’s not quite time to stop calling for more and better quality representation yet. In its latest annual report on LGBTQ characters on television, the non-profit GLAAD found that 10.2% of series regular characters on broadcast TV are LGBTQ on shows anticipated for the 2019-2020 season. That milestone was reached less than a year after GLAAD called on broadcast networks to increase their LGBTQ series regular representation to at least 10%, reported The Hollywood Reporter. And now, the organization is calling for broadcast shows to increase their LGBTQ series regulars to 20% by 2025.
